What do you do with all those eggs?

Ok... enough of the yuk

Don't knock it 'til you try it, they're delicious in small quantities. Just don't inhale as you eat them as they're stinky. Not something I'd ever consider trying to recreate at home though, as the eggs need to be packed in clay and who knows what else, for the process to happen.

Sometimes if i have alot of extra eggs i make an angle food cake (takes about a dozen large eggs) only the egg whites.
And with the yolks i make the richest custard you have ever tasted.
I love to bake and My family loves it!

We eat a lot of eggs, I give them to coworkers and friends, and my parents and sister actually buy them from me! I tell them they can have them for free, but they insist on giving me $5 a dozen. Pastured eggs at the store are upwards of $8 a dozen in my neck of the (not) woods, so I guess I will accept the donations with grace. There goes 3-5 dozen a week.
I pickle them, soy sauce brine them, steam them, and bake with them. Having too many eggs is a happy "problem" to have.
Oh, also feed them to the dogs, and to any birds that could use the extra protein.

Soy Sauce Brine them? Oooh! Please share the recipe!

We originally got it from the first Whole 30 ebook. I think nowadays Miles is just doing it from memory. Try this

The room temperature part and the SLOWLY part are important.

There's another thing I do with eggs - but only during Lent - I write pysanky!View attachment 1751695

I make a lot of pasta, and the very best recipes use only egg yolks. It's a luxury to have acccess to all the eggs I need and more. I do lots of baking, and we love hardboiled eggs. Even so, in the summer I always have more than I need, and friends and neighbors love fresh eggs, so there's no problem giving them away.
